Five Killer Short Hair and Full Beard Styles

So, you're ready to take the plunge. Good. A short haircut paired with a full beard offers a clean, sharp contrast. It’s a bold look. It says you care about your appearance, but you're not messing around. Let's break down five distinct styles to get you started:

  1. The Classic Crew Cut and Full Beard: This is your foundational, go-to style. Think military precision meets rugged individualism. The hair is short all around, typically faded on the sides and back. The beard, however, is where your personality shines through. Keep it neatly trimmed, but let it grow to a respectable length.

    • How to Style It: Use a little of our beard oil to keep your beard soft and manageable. A good beard comb, like the ones from Kent, will prevent tangles. For the hair, a matte clay or pomade will provide hold without the shine.

    • Who It's For: Guys who want a low-maintenance, timeless look. This style works for almost any face shape.

  2. The Textured Crop and Shaped Beard: This one's got a bit more personality. The hair is short, but with some texture on top – think choppy layers. The beard is full, but sculpted. We're talking defined cheek lines and a neckline that's not left to chance.

    • How to Style It: A sea salt spray will give your hair that effortless, textured look. For the beard, our beard balm provides hold and shape. It also helps keep those stray hairs in check.

    • Who It's For: Men who want a modern, stylish look that still feels masculine.

  3. The Buzz Cut and Full Beard: This combination is bold. The hair is buzzed very short – we're talking a #1 or #2 guard, maybe even shorter. This puts all the focus on your beard. It becomes the centerpiece.

  • How To Style It: Because your hair is barely there, your focus is on the condition, feel, and scent of your full beard. Our beard butter can help with all of these things. 

  • Who It’s For: Confident men.

  1. The Slicked-Back Undercut and Full Beard: This is a more refined, polished take on the short hair/full beard combo. The sides and back are short (think undercut), but the top is left longer and slicked back. This creates a strong contrast with a well-groomed, full beard.

    • How to Style It: A strong-hold pomade is your friend here. For the beard, regular trimming and the use of our beard oil will keep it looking healthy and hydrated. 

    • Who It's For: The guy who appreciates classic style with a modern edge. This style works particularly well with thicker hair.

  2. The Short Quiff and Full Beard: This one is all about volume and movement. The hair is short on the sides and back, but longer on top, styled upwards and slightly back. This style pairs well with a full beard that's well-maintained but not overly sculpted.

    • How to keep it looking good: Keeping your beard conditioned will assist greatly with the quiff style. Our beard conditioner keeps beards soft and manageable.

    • Who it’s for: Great for a rectangular face.

We also have a monthly scent program to keep your routine, and those around you, excited and fresh. Our beard care products help nourish your hair and the skin beneath.

Styling Secrets: Making Each Look Work

You've picked your style. Now, let's get down to the details. It's the small things that separate a good beard and short hair combo from a great one.

  • The Classic Crew Cut: The key here is regular trims. Visit your barber every 2-3 weeks to keep the crew cut sharp. For the beard, daily brushing with a Kent comb and a few drops of our beard oil are non-negotiable. This distributes the oil evenly and keeps your beard healthy.

  • The Textured Crop: Use a texturizing product (like a sea salt spray) on damp hair. Scrunch it in to create that messy, undone look. For the beard, trim those cheek and neck lines weekly. Our beard balm will help define the shape and tame flyaways.

  • The Buzz Cut: This one's all about beard care. Wash your beard regularly with our beard wash. This prevents buildup and keeps it smelling fresh. Follow up with beard butter for added softness and a subtle, masculine scent.

  • The Slicked-Back Undercut: Apply pomade to dry hair for maximum hold and shine. Comb it back neatly. For the beard, consider a beard conditioner to keep it soft and prevent that dreaded beard itch.

  • The Short Quiff: Use a blow dryer and a round brush to create volume at the roots. Apply a small amount of styling product (like a light-hold cream) for hold without stiffness. For the beard, a consistent routine of washing, oiling, and combing is crucial.

Product Power: Keeping it Sharp

The right products make all the difference. We're not talking about a bathroom counter overflowing with stuff. Just a few essentials will do the trick.

  • Beard Oil: This is your foundation. It hydrates the skin, softens the beard, and adds a healthy sheen. We've got a range of scents, from classic to unique monthly offerings.

  • Beard Balm: Think of this as your beard's styling agent. It provides hold, shape, and tames unruly hairs.

  • Beard Butter: For ultimate softness and conditioning, this is your go-to. It's perfect for guys with longer beards or those prone to dryness.

  • Beard Wash & Conditioner: Cleanliness is key. Our beard wash removes dirt and grime without stripping away natural oils. The conditioner keeps your beard soft and manageable.

  • Kent Combs & Brushes: These are investment pieces. They'll last for years and help distribute products evenly, preventing tangles and promoting healthy growth.

Long-Term Game: Maintaining Your Style

This isn't a one-time deal. Consistency is everything.

  • Regular Barber Visits: Schedule them in advance. Don't wait until you need a haircut.

  • Daily Beard Care Routine: Make it a habit. Wash, oil, and comb your beard every day. It takes just a few minutes, but the payoff is huge.

  • Listen to Your Hair and Skin: If you notice dryness, itchiness, or irritation, adjust your routine. You might need to switch products or use them less frequently.

  • Accept the Change: Your beard will change over time. It might grow faster or slower, become thicker or thinner. Adapt your style and products accordingly. Don't be afraid to experiment.
